Literally, he played the drums. He would sit at the drum kit and strike the skins with drumsticks. Sort of like this: https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=...

It means the same thing it means in anywhere. He played the drums, which means he hit drums with drumsticks or his hands, in order to produce sounds.The same thing as playing any musical instrument.

Exactly what it says. He played drums alone while drunk.

In this context, it probably means amused himself.
